I’m trying to install quickstart.
After extracting the zip folder on public_html I don’t know what to do. I see an installation folder but I really don’t know what to do.
I couldn’t find any step by step explanation about it.
Please advise.
Thks

These are the steps towards ussing Quickstart.

Before you start, make sure you have set up a database for your new site. Then follow these steps.

1- Download the template you desire to your desktop (or any folder). Then unzip the zip file. Then you will have different folders including the Quickstart zip file.

2- Using your Cpanel (FTP), upload the Quickstart zip file to the root of the domain – usually at the public_html or if you are using an subdomain, at public_html/name_of_your_subdomain/

3- Once you have uploaded the Quickstart, you need to extract it.

4- Then open a new url and type your website’s name. For example, if the name of your website is example.co.uk, on a new browser, type example.co.uk and this will prompt the installer. Follow the easy-to-use installer.

5- After you finish this process, then go back to your Cpanel and delete or rename the folder named “installation”. You will not be able to see your live installation unless you delete or rename the “installation” folder.

6- I hope this would help.

Have a good day!

Don’t forget to click on INSTALL SAMPLE DATA if you want your site to appear as in the demo. Installing Sample Data may make it easier and you can just replace things according to your taste.
